The Reborn Duke of Ming Dynasty

When Wang Chonggu asked Najiang to bring Hannaji's zhezi to the capital, Gao Gong had regained his position as the chief assistant of the cabinet.Gao Gong, who re-joined the cabinet, was not unfamiliar with his work at all, and immediately devoted himself to it.He is very grateful to Zhang Juzheng for recommending him, but one size counts for another, and the conflict with Zhang Juzheng always exists.Naturally, the work of re-forming the clique is indispensable, but the most important thing at the moment is the matter of Hannaji.

Zhang Juzheng was also very anxious about this matter, he could guess that Zhang Fan and others must also be waiting for news from here.But many people in the DPRK opposed it. Although Zhang Juzheng was the second in command of the cabinet, he was alone and alone, so he had no choice but to ask Gao Gong for help.

It is said that Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng were once close friends, and their experiences are quite similar.Gao Gong also gave lectures and readings in Yuwang's Mansion before, opened the mansion to teach scriptures, Long Qing also liked him quite a lot.After he was promoted, his successor was Zhang Juzheng.Perhaps because of their common experience, the two gradually became invincible, but it was only because of the gap between Xu Jie and Zhang Juzheng's edict, but the two did not have a deep hatred. Now that Xu Jie has retired, Zhang Juzheng felt that it was an opportunity to get back together.

This day Zhang Juzheng came to Gao Gong's mansion, after the two of them greeted each other, Gao Gong said enthusiastically: "How is my brother? I don't know what you can give me when you come to my mansion this time?"

Zhang Juzheng was also very happy, and said: "Brother Suqing, the younger brother came here this time, but he wants to ask for help."

"But for the trade with the Tartars?" Gao Gong had a keen sense of politics, so how could he fail to see his intentions.

"That's exactly what happened." Zhang Juzheng saw that he said it clearly, so he stopped being sloppy, and said straight to the point: "This time Han Naji came to surrender, it's a big deal, how can we let it go."

"I heard that my virtuous brother has accepted a good apprentice, and this time he will go north with the envoy?" Gao Gong suddenly mentioned this matter.

"Exactly." Zhang Juzheng said.

"Brother is so anxious about this matter, is it because he is worried about the safety of his beloved disciple?" Gao Gong asked, his words were so kind that there was no other meaning.

Zhang Juzheng listened to his words, sighed, and said: "Yuande has a bright future, and now he has just started a family. If you say that you are not worried about his lies at that time, but what is more important is the interests of my Daming."

Gao Gong didn't speak, he knew Zhang Juzheng's words were sincere and not false.

"My little brother knows that there are some unpleasant things between brother Suqing and me, but I also know that brother Suqing is a good official who is dedicated to the country." Zhang Juzheng continued, "Brother Suqing, please temporarily put aside those who disagree with you." Let’s finalize this matter during the interval. The younger brother will definitely not ask Brother Su Qing’s plan again.”

It turned out that when Gao Gong came back this time, many people in the court who had conflicts with him were panicked. An incident happened a few days ago.Hu Yingjia was the one who forced Gao Gong to claim his illness and go home to recuperate. Gao Gong knew that this person was instructed by Xu Jie.Now that Xu Jie has returned to his hometown after returning to his post, after Gao Gong's reinstatement, people spread the news that he wanted to deal with these people, but Hu Yingjia was really as timid as a mouse, and he was scared to death.

Gao Gong fell silent after hearing his words.Zhang Juzheng didn't speak any more, and waited patiently.

After a long while, Gao Gong said: "Aren't you afraid of making me anxious and killing me?"

Zhang Juzheng said with a smile: "Brother Suqing entered the cabinet earlier than my younger brother, and he has also confronted me secretly several times. You know his thoughts best, so do you still need to ask my younger brother?"

What Zhang Juzheng said is reasonable, even if he doesn't know I Da very well, at least he knows that he has some wisdom.If Daming seals Hannaji, the Tatar nobles will definitely ask me questions. At that time, I will definitely try my best to ask Daming for peace.

Gao Gong looked at Zhang Juzheng for a long time, and said: "In this case, I promise my brother. But my brother must also remember what he said, and never interfere with me."

"Uncle Dare never dare to break his promise." Zhang Juzheng said very seriously.

"Since that's the case, what do you plan to do?" After the matter was settled, Gao Gong began to ask specific matters.

"I've been thinking about it for a long time." Zhang Juzheng said, "Brother Suqing and I should also join in the performance, asking the sage to surrender and I will answer."

Gao Gong laughed loudly after hearing what he said, and said: "My dear brother, I am the chief assistant, and you are the second assistant. I am afraid that everyone in the court will oppose it. Your majesty should think carefully about it." gone."

"This is just a way to attract attention. More importantly, it is to describe the strength of this place. In this way, His Majesty will definitely agree." Zhang Juzheng said.

At that moment, the two signed a joint proposal and gave it to Long Qing.Sure enough, on the second day when Longqing asked people to read this book out, it caused an uproar in the court.Leaving aside what Zhezi said, the joint name of Gao and Zhang is amazing enough.But after thinking about it, everyone was relieved, Gao Gong's biggest opponent had left, there was only a small gap between him and Zhang Juzheng, and this person was quite ambitious, so they were relieved.

Although most people in the middle and high courts are against it, they feel that I have already agreed to the mutual market, so there is no need to cause such trouble.Besides, the timing of Hanaji's surrender was too coincidental, so I'm afraid it might be fraudulent.Gao Gong and Zhang Juzheng tried their best to argue against all the arguments and described the stakes and interests here. Although everyone was still quite dissatisfied, Longqing was persuaded and agreed to their proposal.

The next thing is, Gao Gong adopted the method of "enhancing his food and offerings", and asked Han Naji to wear brocade clothes, ride in a Chinese chariot, ride a good horse, and swagger through the market.This matter spread all over the world immediately, reaching the land of the Northern Kingdom.

The negotiation between Wang Xilie and others and Ida entered into a stalemate stage. The people in the Ministry of Rites were always indifferent, and occasionally talked about topics related to the mutual market, but they didn't point to the topic at all. I remember that Ida was very anxious.

In the court, although Zhang Juzheng and Gao Gong acted quickly, it took a few days. It has been five or six days since Zhang Fan received the news of Hannaji's surrender.I answered that I was in a hurry, but the people in the Ministry of Rites were not in a hurry; similarly, Zhang Fan was not in a hurry, his main task this time was to attract the attention of others, and he did a good job.The pretended official position was not high, but he was treated respectfully by many people, even Wang Xilie. After all, his identity in the Ming court was not kept secret, so I should send someone to investigate and find out.Just imagine Zhang Fan's status as the second in command of Jinyiwei, how unobtrusive it is!But he himself seemed indifferent, on the contrary, he was very happy, mainly because of that Li Yingyue.

These days, Zhang Fan and Li Yingyue can always be seen in the city as a couple, like a couple in love.In the beginning, Li Yingyue took the initiative to look for Zhang Fan, and then the two of them transferred over.Zhang Fan also told Li Yingyue that he had a wife, but Li Yingyue didn't seem to care, and still had a heated fight with him.

The two were playing games, but neither dared to show their feet, and neither of them asked the other for any important matters.The businessmen saw that Zhang Fan and a woman from another race were very close, and there was nothing wrong with them. Instead, they were happy for him. After all, it is very common for a man to have three wives and four concubines.Although Li Yingyue is from a foreign race, some veterans have secretly known Zhang Fan. Foreign women are very bold, especially the amorous feelings between the beds are even more ecstasy.Hearing that Zhang Fan was helpless, he was really tempted because of his newlyweds, but for the important task of the court, he hadn't acted yet.

On this day, Li Yingyue invited Zhang Fan to her home. This was unimaginable in China, but it is very natural here.Her home is not big, but it is well arranged.There is only Li Yingyue's "mother" in the family. I heard that her father is serving in the lord's guard, so he is often not at home.Li Yingyue's "mother", a middle-aged Han woman, can still vaguely see the style of the past on her face eroded by the years.Zhang Fan saw that the woman was indeed somewhat similar to Li Yingyue, but he didn't know if it was his biological mother or a substitute he had found with great effort.

After introducing her, Zhang Fan only said that her name was Yu Lan'er, she was taken here by Tartars when she was young, and Li Yingyue's "father" fell in love with her when she was about to be a slave.This woman is very good at acting, and the experience is sad to say the least.She was very happy to know that Zhang Fan was an official of the Ming Dynasty. She seemed to want to let her "daughter" out of the sea of ​​suffering. She followed Zhang Fan, even though she knew that Yingyue had gone and could only be a concubine, she didn't care at all.The enthusiasm almost made Zhang Fan agree, but fortunately, Wang Meng coughed lightly to remind him.

Yu Lan'er was very "sensible" and let Zhang Fan and Yingyue be alone. Wang Meng saw that she would not kill, so he went out too, but he didn't dare to enter the courtyard, and was on guard at the door.

Being alone in a room with a woman who has not left the court, even knowing that she is approaching him with a purpose, Zhang Fan can't help but feel a little embarrassed.Li Yingyue was very enthusiastic and sat next to Zhang Fan without knowing it.

"Young Master Zhang, there is no one else here, and the little girl is not a bad person, so why should you be like this." Yingyue's clear and charming voice came to Zhang Fan's ears, and her body had already touched Zhang Fan.

Zhang Fan hurriedly sat away and said, "Ms. Li, please respect yourself if you don't want to kiss each other."

Hearing his words, Li Yingyue felt as if she had been greatly wronged, her face was about to cry, and she said: "Does the young master despise the little girl, she is a lowly girl who has no shame and only wants to gain fame."

Zhang Fan said some sad words, knowing that she had ulterior motives, but still felt pity for her.Zhang Fan hurriedly said: "Miss misunderstood, it's just that Zhang Fan already has a family, so wouldn't this be a disservice to the girl!"

Li Yingyue said sadly: "These days, Yingyue has already fallen in love with the young master, does the young master not know about it! Yingyue doesn't care if the young master has a wife or not, even if she is a slave or a handmaid, she is willing."

When Zhang Fan heard her words, his head grew big. He didn't have to do this kind of tricks, pretending to be a fool, and he couldn't help thinking: "Does she really like me?" But he suppressed this thought in an instant. .Thinking that since she was like this, he had to cooperate well, sighed, and said helplessly: "Girl, Zhang Fan is really ashamed." His tone was quite softened.

As soon as Li Yingyue heard that there was something interesting, she immediately changed her expression, her face became rosy, and she said shyly, "I... Yingyue, can I call... Brother Fan?"

Zhang Fan screamed loudly, not to mention the quick and natural expression changes, the voice alone is so tender and sweet, even Liu Xiahui, who is still in his arms, cannot be spared!Although Zhang Fan is also quite a principled person, he has always been a man. He did not have this capital in his previous life. He has spent most of his time in this life. It can be regarded as enjoying the pleasure of the boudoir every night, and I am not afraid of damaging my body.This time, I had been abstaining from sexual intercourse for more than ten days, and I was already impatient, but a few words from Li Yingyue aroused the desire in my heart.

Zhang Fan tried to calm himself down, first he tried to think about his beloved wife in his heart, but his desire became stronger and stronger, there was no other way, and then he thought about the scene when he was almost killed by the Tartars when he went out to fight. Calm down a little.

Li Yingyue felt Zhang Fan's change, and secretly admired it.Although I am still a virgin, I have seduced many people, but there is no one with Zhang Fan's concentration, I really have a little liking for him in my heart, and said with a smile: "Brother Fan, if Yingyue gives you For the trouble, please forgive Yingyue, it's just that Yingyue... Yingyue really likes Brother Fan." Although the words were still full of hypocrisy, there was a trace of truth in them, and after she said them, she felt inappropriate.

Zhang Fan also heard the affection in her words, but he thought it was her new trick, secretly said fiercely, and said: "Yingyue doesn't have to be like this, I know, but it's just that it's wronged the girl."

Li Yingyue heard his hypocritical words, but for some reason, she felt a little lost in her heart, but she still hadn't forgotten her mission, and said with a charming smile: "Yingyue doesn't ask for fame, she just wants to be with you." By my brother's side." The words returned to the usual way before, and the trace of true feelings was suppressed by her in her heart.

"It's just that my family is in Daming, so you can really abandon this place." Zhang Fan's words were to find out what her plan was to visit her.

Li Yingyue said rather helplessly: "My mother has always hoped that I can have a good home. If I marry a Ming person, even if I am a concubine or a slave, it is much better than being a plaything of those nobles here. But, father He will definitely not allow it." After that, there was another burst of sadness.

Zhang Fan quickly comforted her, but he still didn't know what her intentions were, so he tried again: "Yingyue, I'll intercede with the lord, if he agrees, it will be easy for your father!"

After hearing what he said, Li Yingyue said happily: "That's right! Brother Fan is an envoy of Ming Dynasty, and the lord will definitely agree."

Now Zhang Fan understood that Li Yingyue came here to ask for help, no matter whether she asked me or other Tatar nobles, she must have failed.In the end, her project made her see hope, and her identity as Jin Yiwei made it easier for her to inquire about the news.

Zhang Fan bid farewell to him deeply, and then left her house.Back in the camp, Zhang Fan asked Wang Meng, "Have you heard what we said, what do you think?"

Wang Meng also thought about it for a long time along the way, and said: "This woman must want to stay by your side, but I don't know what your plan is."

Zhang Fan thought about it for a while, and said, "I decided to fall into her trap. Instead of keeping her out, I don't know who will be sent over at that time. Since this has surfaced, we must grasp it."

Wang Meng nodded, and said: "My lord, that woman in the humble position view is not a fool, can't she see that my lord already knows her identity and intention?"

Zhang Fan smiled and said, "She's really not stupid, and she also saw our plan. But if she still wants to do this, the world is going to be big. I'm afraid she can't help herself."

That's right, since she already knew that the other party had seen her plan, but still insisted on it, it was like sending a sheep into the mouth of a tiger, but Li Yingyue didn't hesitate to get into the trap. Someone she came out of was in big trouble, or she herself had reasons why she had to.

Zhang Fan sighed, and said, "Since the matter has been settled, let's wait and see what happens."
